[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snlu178:
OK I am not trying to be an Asshat, I have tried to be helpful on these boards. But for everyone saying an iPhone is better, please go purchase that and post on their forums.

Ok, build quality from N1 to Atrix....

Atrix is bigger (obviously) and I find it slippery. The build does not feel plasticky to me, probably because of the way the back cover grips around the edges of the Atrix.

Screens, I have not noticed the pentile as much with the Atrix. Yes likley due to the pixel size. And after everyones complaining about the colors, I find the screen vibrant and quite pleasing.

I think coming from the N1 you will find this phone faster with a nicer screen. A very nice upgrade to say the least.

Of course, I am a fan of the phone.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gr8Danes:
Coming from the Captivate, I am very pleased with the aesthetics of the phone. Comparatively, it feels just as sturdy as the Captivate did. The screen resolution makes up for the difference in display types between the two phones. The only real difference I see is when viewed from an angle, the Captivate looks better. I got a body glove case for both phones, and they feel very similar. I don't feel that the Atrix is any slicker than the Captivate. I worried about dropping the Captivate when I first got it. With out a case, I probably would have.

Hands down IMO, the Atrix is a better unit. Functionality is far superior and the GPS actually tracks flawlessly (Stationary and in motion) as it should. Add in the FFC, LED, dual cores, and flash, I am very happy with it. Now if only Motorola would release the access to the bootloader so that we can have some real fun with this thing, all would be right in the world (ok, almost). ;)

i think it's dead :(

or someone can help us ?
[Galaxy Spica General] gen_scheisskopf:
If you can access download mode- flash official firmware using Odin. Except standard options check also Debug ONLY and Parameter Clear.

If this doesn't help- check Debug ONLY, Parameter Clear and PDA Format.

Do not touch under any circumstances Phone EFS Clear- this will erase your IMEI
[Galaxy Spica General] gabimarian:
Many thanks man. U saved my time. I had similar problem with my Samsung Gio. Now I was able to flash new firmware.

I'm trying to run the "unofficial alpha 3" rom again but think that I need to do the following but can't figure out how. I have the Thunderg recovery rom and from reading the text below I think it means to boot into the recovery console, mount the /system partition and format it but I don't see how to get to a shell prompt from there,

Sometimes Recovery can't format /system so you must remove all files before flashing zip (bug still here):

1. Mount /system in recovery.

2. adb shell rm -rf /system/*

You get 1 error. This is ok.

Will update if I found this bug.

Can someone help ?

[Optimus One, P500, V General] lekhwani:
On void I installed cm 7 a2 just with the simple procedure of flashing in recovery. Then updated to cm7 a3 easily. Then I went back to void to check the audio quality. Found the quality same and also realized equalizer app didn't install on void. So tried to flash back cm7a3. But bootloop occurred. Fortunately I had a nand backup of cm7a2. So restored it and updated to a3 flawlessly.

So two learnings:

1. Sometimes direct install of cm fails. Sometimes it works.

2. Nand backup is a very good thing.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nemuro:
1. Why aren't the Desire/Bravo builds developed anymore? I tried Cotulla's and the other two deriving roms from it. Good rom, bad battery life and has the glitched the newer roms don't.

DesireHD/Desire Z is too much sense for me.

2. Desire/Bravo has the same NAND space as HD2. How come upon flashing a stock Desire build (like cotulla's) you are left with ~60 mb of space to install and do your thing? Does a Desire also have that kind of little space left after it was flashed with a shipped rom?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] insaneone:
Hi All,

I am new to the Android development scene, and was wondering if somebody could help guide me in the direction where I could download a set of specific API's for Samsung devices. The API's that I'm seeking are the ones mentioned in a recent article published on networkworld referring to 90 new api's to boost mobile management (I can't paste the URL in here due to me being a n00b in the forum).

Any help that can be given would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance.

Doesn't the Android SDK include the Samsung specific files as "third-party addon"

Alternatively goto opensource.samsung.com and click on mobile > mobile phone and download the sources for your model
[Xoom Accessories] msalem:
So I went to a Verizon store to get the gel case since I don't like the portfolio case (just too bulky for me) and of course they didn't have it in black so I decided to just pick up the 3 pack screen protector. Got back to my desk and removed the original plastic that i had kept on since last Thursday and discovered that the screen protector doesn't actually cover the entire screen, looked like crap and so I decided to go back and return it. Has anyone ordered the Zagg one yet? I have a Zagg screen protector on my Ipad and love it but want to hear some opinions before rushing in case someone has any bad feedback.
[Xoom Accessories] atoy74:
Just noticed that Phantom Skinz has their screen protector out. They have been my favorite protector for years now. Mainly cause they do not have that orange peel effect.

Only reason why i havent pulled the trigger is that I can't find a coupon code. There's almost always one available.
[Xoom Accessories] msalem:
Thanks I'll check it out.
[Xoom Accessories] JimmyHACK:
Have not tried the ZAGG one, I like their protectors. I have installed the Skinomi one, they are my current fav when it comes to screen protectors. Covers the screen like it should be.. I have seen friends run into your situation before with cell phones, whatever protectors they buy at the verizon stores they just dont cover the whole screen and just dont fit or look good.

Side topic - I am not a case fan cause adding size, but i like full protection from basic things, so I get screen protector, and I usually design a nice back skin... Anyone seen any skin sites that support XOOM yet?... Skinit/DecalGirl do not yet.
[Xoom Accessories] ashura3:
I'm someone who has never, ever used a screen protector on my mp3 players/phones. Can you let me know if the Zagg/Skinomi protectors:

1. Are truly invisible? You don't notice that they're on at all?

2. Significantly reduce fringerprints?

3. Make the screen less glossy at all?

4. Are easy to take on and off?

5. Are the Zagg full body ones worth it? You really can't tell it's on?
[Xoom Accessories] atoy74:
This generally applies to all screen protectors -

1. never 100% invisible but you shouldn't be able to tell from a distance there's one on. The biggest problem is "orange peel." Some manufacturers do a better job of it than others.

2. Yes, almost all of them do wonders for finger prints as well as face smudges (for phones.)

3. Again, most do make it less glossy. Some are more reflective.

4. The Zagg and Phantomskinz types are not easy to remove. They dry on to your device but will not leave a residue. Technically they say you can reattach it but I doubt it.

5. The full body's are great for protecting your device from scratches. I have found that over time dust sticks to the edges and will make it more an more obvious.

Long story short, they're great and give very good piece of mind. On the other hand, full body skins will make your device too big for things like Moto's portfolio case (educated guess but it's been that way for everything else.)
[Xoom Accessories] ashura3:
Thanks for the answers! I'm strongly considering getting one now.
[Xoom Accessories] Droid4All:
I got the vzw screen protector too. I was thinking the same thing, why doesn't it cover the whole screen? Than it dawned on me. How well would the front facing camera work if it was covered? I vid chat so that made up my mind.
[Xoom Accessories] arrtoodeetoo:
All of the other screen protectors have a hole cut out for the camera. The one for the OG Droid even has one cut out for the stupid LED light. lol

I don't see that as an excuse for Verizon not to cover the whole screen with their screen protector. That's a deal breaker for me. I might go with the Skinomi since it's cheaper than the Invisible Shield (Never liked Invisible Shield, anyways.)
[Xoom Accessories] kz810rider:
I can't stand the Verizon scren protectors. I have a Zagg on my Droid X but I ordered a Bodyguardz protector for the Xoom. Appears to be as good or maybe slightly better than the Invisibleshield. There is a video out there. Ultimate I pad scratch test iirc.
[Xoom Accessories] Droid4All:
Now that I think about it, the plastic that came with the Xoom covered the web cam and it wasn't bad. Oh well, I get a corporate discount with vzw. Posted up some so I can have extras.
[Xoom Accessories] justabrake:
I ordered this from amazon and i'm awaiting delivery of everything this week I hop this screen protector covers everything or it's going back $19.00

[Xoom Accessories] kz810rider:
I got back in town to find I had a package from Bodyguardz. I got one for the Xoom and one for my Droid X, actually the Droid X was a pack of two. First time I used this brand and so far I like it better than the Zagg. Less orange peel, fit is a little better, and the price is good. I took the Invisibleshield off the X and installed the Bodyguardz on both pieces. I'll see how things go.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] phil.maly:
In relation to the Nook Color issue of not displaying your installed apps in the Market app, I confirm that AppBrain is able to show all my installed apps (I'm running PhireMod Nook V3) but still I have an issue. It shows me which apps are to be updated but when I click on one of these apps and select "Update (in Market)", then it starts loading the Market app and ends up with an error message saying that the requested item cannot be found.

So AppBrain is sort of a half workaround to see your installed apps but you still need then to go and find your individual app in the market to install the latest version which is quite painful.

Anyone the same experience and/or a solution to use Appbrain fully rather than the Market app?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
If you can't see the app in the market you can't see it in the market....... Appbrain doesn't have its own market, it just links to the Android market.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
Nope, appbrain has let me download apps not shown in the "old market" on autonootered 2.1 eclair with the "fast web installer" app. This method won't work for you because PhireMod uses "new market" (v.2.27) which blocks appbrain from bypassing it.

Here's an post about the change. (previous article was about the last time google blocked it! :D)

I'm going to try to use the reversal directions to put old market back on after I install PhireMod:

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-install-new-android-market-2-2-6-on-your-device/

If I can't get old market working, I'm putting eclair back on it.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
Did that help or not? :)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] gallahad2000:
I've been using it on eclair (to find apps not listed by the market). My understanding is that it no longer works once you move to new market. I still haven't switched to froyo because I was waiting for the pandora bug to be fixed and hoping that appbrain would release a new version with new market support.

[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
I have tried to run the update after a factory reset, well I was not able to download the OTA it just checks the version and says no update.

I noticed after factory resetting I could no longer download apps from the market. I ended up formatting my SD card and then running the updater again. So with that being said if yilou have already updated the OTA will not be available, and also confirms that the leak is the official update.

I'm interested in finding out if the ota has swype and the 3g bar graph.

Could someone who's done the upgrade ota report findings please ?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
Also, if there are any changes that cricket made independently of the leaked update, all we'd need to do is get the ota system image and flash that to our phones
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Sorry_8D:
As far as I can see they are the same. The kernel, and build versions are the same. (I borrowed this guy's at school who did OTA today.) Everythings else looks the same, no swype, same 3g.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Godzi:
Hello everyone,

I had a friend of mine purchase a T-Mobile Nexus One on eBay for me today and I am pretty excited coming from HTC Magic.

Today, I also realized that I haven't looked up Nexus One problems on the Internet. Being a fan of the android platform and going up and down through android blogs, I never read anything bad about the Nexus One and I totally forgot.

Just now I did a quick research and found out that the Nexus One has a bunch of problems which gets me worried.

Are there different revisions of the Nexus One hardware which don't have one another's glitches? Or are all the bugs I found fixed with the software updates? The problems I read about were experienced right after the Nexus one launch 1 year ago and people are running 2.1.

I'm pretty worried that I may have bought a faulty device since it's a used device even though it looks to be in excellent condition judging by the photos.

Any calming advice?

Here are the problems I found that people are experiencing

P.S. The phone will be used in Europe so I'm not sure about that 1st 3G issue.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obsy:

And is the lock button issue fixable in some way? Also, is the touch screen issue observed on every device with every ROM? Is it a hardware issue?
